Kate Bush - Don't Give Up

In this proud land we grew up strong
we were wanted all along
I was taught to fight
taught to win
I never thought I could fail.
No fight left or so it segms
I am a man whose dreams have all deserted
I've changed my face
I've changed my name
But no one wants you when you lose.
Don't give up - 'cause you have friends
Don't give up - you're not beaten yet
Don't give up - I know you can make it good.
Though I saw it all around
never thought that I could be affected
Thought that we'd be last to go
it is so strange the way things turn.
Drove the night toward my home
the place that I was Dorn on the lakeside
As daylight broke I saw the earth
the trees had burned down to the ground.
Don't give up - you still have us
Don't give up - we don't need much of anything
Don't give up
'cause somewhere there's a place where we belong.
Rest your head
you worry too much
it's going to be alright.
When times get rough you can fall back on us
Don't give up
please
don't give up!
Got to walk out of here
I can't take anymore
Going to stand on that bridge
keep my eyes down below.
Whatever may come and whatever may go -
That river's flowing
that river's flowing.
Moved on to another town
tried hord to settle down
For every iob so many men
so many men no one needs.
Don't give up - 'cause you have friends
Don't give up - you're not the only one
Don't give up - no reason to be ashamed
Don't give up - you still have us.
Don't give up now - we're proud of who you are
Don't give up - you know it's never been easy
Don't give up - 'cause I believe there's a place
There's a place where we belong!


Traduction de " Don't Give Up "

Dans cette fière contrée nous sommes devenus forts
Nous étions demandés
On m'a appris à me battre, on m'a appris à gagner
Je n'ai jamais pensé que je pourrais échouer

Plus de combat à mener, en tout cas il semble
Je suis un homme déserté par tous ses rêves
J'ai changé de visage, j'ai changé de nom
Mais personne ne veut de toi quand tu perds

Ne baisse pas les bras
Car tu as des amis
Ne baisse pas les bras
Tu n'es pas encore vaincu
Ne baisse pas les bras
Je sais que tu peux y arriver

Bien que j'ai repensé à tout ça
Je n'ai jamais cru que je pourrais être affecté
Bien que nous étions les derniers à partir
Les choses prennent un cours si curieux

J'ai conduit la nuit, dans la direction de chez moi
L'endroit où je suis né, sur les bords du lac
Au lever du soleil, j'ai vu la terre
Les arbres calcinés reposaient sur le sol

Ne baisse pas les bras
Tu nous as toujours
Ne baisse pas les bras
Nous n'avons pas besoin de grand chose
Ne baisse pas les bras
Car il y a un endroit quelque part
Où nous avons notre place
Détends-toi
Tu t'inquiètes trop
Ca va aller
Quand les temps sont durs
Tu peux compter sur nous
Ne baisse pas les bras
S'il te plaît, ne baisse pas les bras

Je dois quitter cet endroit
Je ne peux plus le supporter
Je vais rester sur ce pont
Les yeux regardant en bas
Peu importe ce qui se présente
Ou ce qui nous quitte
La rivière s'écoule
La rivière s'écoule

Déménageant dans une autre ville
Se donnant du mal pour s'établir
Pour chaque emploi, tant d'hommes,
Tant d'hommes dont personne n'a besoin.

Ne baisse pas les bras
Car tu as des amis
Ne baisse pas les bras
Tu n'es pas le seul
Ne baisse pas les bras
Il n'y a pas de quoi avoir honte
Ne baisse pas les bras
Nous sommes avec toi
Ne baisse pas les bras
Nous sommes fiers de ce que tu es
Ne baisse pas les bras
Tu sais que ça n'a jamais été facile
Ne baisse pas les bras
Car je suis convaincu qu'il y a un endroit
Un endroit où nous avons notre place.

Kate Bush - Babooshka

She wanted to test her husband.
She knew exactly what to do:
A pseudonym to fool him.
She couldn't have made a worse move.

She sent him scented letters,
And he received them with a strange delight.
Just like his wife
But how she was before the tears,
And how she was before the years flew by,
And how she was when she was beautiful.
She signed the letter

[refrain]:
"All yours,
Babooshka, Babooshka, Babooshka-ya-ya!

She wanted to take it further,
So she arranged a place to go,
To see if he
Would fall for her incognito.
And when he laid eyes on her,
He got the feeling they had met before.
Uncanny how she
Reminds him of his little lady,
Capacity to give him all he needs,
Just like his wife before she freezed on him,
Just like his wife when she was beautiful.
He shouted out, "I'm
